THEY ARE NOT ORGANIZED.

THERE IS MISTAKEN IMPRESSION CONCERNING THESE MEN WHOSE CRIMINAL INSTINCTS ARE UPPERMOST. New York, June 13 Sig. Rafaele Palizzola, for twenty years a member of the Italian chamber of deputies from Palermo, who is now in this city declares that his mission to America has for its object the instilling into his Sicilian compatriots the principles of good citizenship. As for his visit having any connection with the Mafia, Sig. Palizzola laughed. "The Mafia! You have them all over the world," said the former deputy. "In Sicily they are called 'Mafia'; in Naples 'Camora'; in Paris they are 'Apaches'; in London, "Hooligans.' Mafia a Bugaboo. ; "Much nonsense has been written bout the Mafia," he went on. "It is believed by many that they are one great oath-bound society. That is not so. They are simply the bands of lawless men, who do not want to work and do not hesitate at crime, which you can find in every city in the world. I was accused of being in their confidence and of having instigated the murder of Senor Netarbartole, who had been mayor of Palermo and belonged to a different political party from myself. Haa it never been heard in America that one's political enemies accuse him of having instigated the death of a rival? Well" Take Politics Seriously. The Sicilian shrugged his shoulders as if to indicate that they take their politics -more seriously in Mediterranean .latitudes than in America. Sig. Palizzola is a short, gray-haied J 1 i 1 .1 H U . . 9t 9 ..

Mow to Get Strong This is an axiom : The only way to gain strength, cither of brain or body, is through food. But it isn't the food that you eat, but the food that digests, which counts. Not all who eat are well nourished. 1 ' : ' Take wheat, for example, known to be the perfect food. Wheat is largely starch. And starch, to be digestible, must be made soluble. The particles must be broken up, so the digestive juices will get to them. That requires cooking a fierce heat, long applied. And wheat seldom gets it. The inside of a loaf of bread, for example, gets only one-fourth the heat that is needed. The result is most of the wheat fails to give nourishment. . But, when wheat is properly cooked, no other food can compare with it. That is the reason for Mapl-Flake. This wheat is steam-cooked for six hours. Then .cured for 90 hours. Then flaked so thin that the full heat of our ovens gets to each atom. Then it is toasted, for 30 minutes, in a heat of 400 degrees. The result is a food that's all food."

Mapl-Flake, because of our process, is the one perfect food. It contains the whole wheat, with every atom made digestible. It is not like flaked corn r.ot like some flaked wheats, prepared in one-fourth the time that we 6pend on it. It is the best food in the world, measured by nourishment. It t is the best remedy in the world for weakness. And it is cooked with pure maple syrup. , Price, IS cents. Tba only food Mrrod la iadbridoal pckMr la hotels, dabs, cafes, ul oa dialog cars.
